Unable to upgrade to iPhoto 9.5 version. is there a manual download somewhere?

Hi all
I have the 9.1.4 iphoto version that suddenly stopped working.  Now when i click on the software update for the new iphoto 9.5 version it refuses to download.  i get a message that tells me the following" these apps were assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that ID's purchase list. If you dont have access to that Apple ID nd want to receive future updates, you will need to purchase the applications."
The message before that was that i need to log into the Apple ID i used to purchase this app.  I did not purchase this app to begin with.  It came pre-installed with my Mac Air.  because i did not recall the password to this particular ID ( I assume its the ID they are talking about), I requested a password recall by inserting this old Apple ID.  the password never came although it accepted the ID as valid.  As for security questions, I probably wouldnt be able to answer it given that it was a long time back.
To summarise:
I did not purchase this Iphoto App version 9.1.4.  It was preinstalled.  I got 1 message that tells me i need to log in to the apple ID I used to purchase it when I got it pre-installed. this message was recently replaced by the newer message i directly quoted above" and now I have 75GB of photos in my iphoto library that I cannot access because it seems the OS X software I have is to advanced for this version of Iphoto.  can anyone help?

    Backup first
    It is always best to have a full bootable backup before you upgrade. If you fail to do this you will be unable to return to this OS if you decide you don't like the new OS. Also there is a slight chance that an install could lose everything on the Mac. The backup must be to an external hard disk. Preferably use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the whole disk.
    Erase before the install
    Once you have a bootable backup on an external disk it is best to erase the internal disk with the new installer DVD before you install.
    During the install
    Preferably do not import any data or preferences from earlier OSs during the install process as this can reintroduce bugs.
    OS numbers and names
    OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
    OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
    OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
    OS X 10.7.x - Lion
    OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion

    Upgrade to Leopard
    Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
    Upgrade beyond Leopard
    OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A
    Upgrade beyond Snow Leopard

    Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages.

  • I'm getting 'an ssl error has occurred and secure connection can not be made' I have upgraded to the latest OX version, but no joy in downloading a wetransfer file

    I have received a retransfer file and if I try to open it I get the error message detailed above.

    Have used it before with no problems.
    Times have changed.
    Older versions of SSL has been found to have some problems that have been patched (several different times) with Apple Security Updates. Unless wetransfer has kept up and patched these vulnerabilities, you may not be able to establish a secure connection with them (due to their software being out-if-date).

  • Have just upgraded Itunes to new version, and Iphoto to new version. All went well. but this morning unable to open either of them. keep getting " Itunes quit unexpectedly, reopen" I keep on reopen, but to no avail. Any idea how to make it work?

    After upgrading to IOS5, and new version of Itunes and new version of Iphoto11, I now have a problem opening itunes and iphoto11.
    I get" Itunes quit unexpectedly, reopen" same message for Iphoto.  Tried and tried and tried to reopen, but keep getting the same message over again.
    Any idea how to fix it?

    Did you ever resolve the iCloud problem.I am in the same position and its driving me mad!!! If you have a link to an solution I would appreciate it.

  • Upgraded to iphoto 11, unable to create projects in iphoto

    Unable to create a calendar, nor any project, in iphoto. Upgraded to iphoto '11, still not able to create a calendar. The options and windows appear, howvever, when I click "OK" or "Create" nothing happens......
    Any ideas for us?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5?
    what system version are you running?
    what happens when you try to create a calandar or project?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    As a first general fix attempt try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder:
    User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • I am trying to upgrade my iPhoto 09 version 8.1.2 to iPhoto 11 on my mac but i am confused

    I currently have iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 which was installed on my Macbook when I bought it. I have recently upgraded to OX Lion & want to upgrade to iPhoto '11 so I can use iCloud between my mac & iPhone but every time I click on the App in the App Store it keeps giving me a warning message: "iPhoto 8.1.2 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac App Store - Do you want to buy iPhoto 9.2.3?"
    I am worried that if I select BUY it will delete my current iPhoto programme & I will lose everything?
    can anybody tell me what to do?

    Back up your library and install it.

  • How do you fix 'unable to upgrade from version 0'?

    I have been working on 6 ibooks over the past year, documenting a lot of stuff for user manuals for our school. The ibooks were all created in iBA version 1.0, but are not published - we only use them internally so we just use the previews.
    I gave up trying to upgrade my 1.0 iBooks, it takes too long to 'optimize' the files when I try to open them in 2.0. I have read all the issues with iBA 2.0, but decided to download 2.0 on another computer and wabt to try to re-write all my old 1.0 manuals (I have all the files that went into them).
    However, when I double-click to open the 2.0, nothing happens. So I go to 'File' and select 'New from Template Chooser'. I then get the window with all the new templates, including the portrait ones. When I select any template, say the 5th one for example, I get the prompt "The document 'Textbook 05.ibatemplate' could not be upgraded. Unable to upgrade from version 0". This happens for every template. I don't understand. I downloaded the 2.0 from the app store onto a 'clean' computer. Yes, it has Lion on it and all the spec requirements to run iBA. Can anyone help me with what to do next?

    Did you ask Apple for help yet?

  • After upgrading to Yosemite, I had to upgrade my iPhoto, now the full res versions of my images cannot be found.

    After upgrading to Yosemite, I had to upgrade my iPhoto, now the full res versions of my images cannot be found.  I had created a book to print (before upgrade) but, after the upgrade the book can't be created as I get the message that images can't be found. However, if I search for the filename I can find the image. I tried repairing library as per support instructions but it hasn't helped. Any advice gratefully received. Thanks.

    Do the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - apply Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Trouble upgrading from iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 to latest version

    Currently, I am using iphoto '09 version 8.1.2 and want to SAFELY upgrade to the latest version of iPhoto (and I have already upgraded to Lion). I've heard about a lot of lost data when doing this!  I started by trying to install version 9.0.1 it won't load on my hard drive saying that I need to install version 9.0 first.  I thought about just going ahead with iPhoto '11 but I'm confused and don't want to risk losing data.  Any suggstions?

    Make a back up before upgrading anything.
    Somewhat confusing but iPhoto 11 and iPhoto v9 are the same thing. 11 is the marketing name for version 9 of iPhoto - like 09 is the marketing name of version 8 of iPhoto.
    To upgrade to iPhoto 11 (v9) you need to purchase it. You can do this on the App Store.

    Thanks x

    You can upgrade to iPhoto '11 with OS X 10.8.5 by purchasing an iPhoto '11 DVD from Amazon, eBay or other source - or you can upgrade your OS to Mavericks for free if your system meets the requirements and then purchase the upgrade to iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x from the App store - in either case backup first in case of problems

    Prior to upgrading to Maverick, you must FIRST make sure your iMac meets all of its system requirements.

    Is your Apple Intel-based, poppelmacbook?  If not, you should consider treating yourself to a new Mac. Last December I gave up my old because it just could not update...anything because it was not Intel-based.  Updating everything on this OS to 10.9 has been confusing for me, but I just could not work with that old Mac because the updates were too smart? for my 10.6.  It is upstairs now...for visiting family:  games, garage band, etc.--things I never did use.  Apple refurbished and purchase the extended warranty.  Apple loyalist since late 1980's.

  • I have iPhoto Version 8.6, and and want to upgrade to Version. I can't find a download for Version 9.0.0.  Exactly what version do I need to download and or buy, and where do I find it.  Every version of 9 that I download tells me I need an earlier one.

    I have iPhoto Version 8.6, and and want to upgrade to Version 9. I can't find a download for Version 9.0.0.  Exactly what version do I need to download, and or buy, and where do I find it?  Every version of 9 that I download tells me I need an earlier one.

    There is no download aside from the one in the Mac App Store available to people running Mac OS X 10.6.6 and newer. The other way of getting iPhoto 9 is to purchase iLife 11 on DVD. As iLife 11 requires Mac OS X 10.6.3 or newer, it's usually best to update to 10.6.8 for free and then use the Mac App Store version.

  • IPhoto keeps saying The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto

    Upgraded to new Lion iMac from Snow Leopard iMac, then upgraded to iCloud. I upgraded to the latest version of iPhoto. I get this message that says that "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. I have iPhoto '11 version 9.2.1(628)
    I have attached the screenshot here. I have over 31,000 photos in this library. I click upgrade and it shows me a line for a while and then goes to the photos. Everything looks fine except photstream doesn't work and I always get this same message when I open iPhoto again.
    Another detail is that I do have mobileme web albums still publishing from this iPhoto. Could this be causing a problem?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Iphoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Will my Facebook albums remain?

    I just upgraded my computer to yosemite and that includes the iPhoto application.
    After opening iPhoto it says "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto." I'm worried that if I chose to upgrade I will 1. lose all my photos and 2. have my synced facebok albums taken off Facebook.
    One time I moved my iPhoto library to an external hard drive and lost all my Facebook album photos so I don't want to make the same mistake.
    So does anyone know if I chose to go through with this upgrade will I lose my photos in the iPhoto and the synced albums on Facebook? If I do lose photos, how do I go recover my previous iPhoto version?

    Just to confirm. When I saved a copy of my iPhoto library on my external harddrive that's "backing-up" right?
    Also, is there anyway on Facebook to tell which albums are synced with my iPhoto so that I know which ones will be gone if something does go wrong?
    Sorry one more question Larry. I keep reading issues people are having with upgrading their iPhoto to 9.6 and the upgraded iPhoto does not recognize their library (see: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6676471). If this happens to me and I have to repair or re-install my iPhoto will my Facebook albums be affected?
    Thanks for your help Larry I appreciate it
